Fics like Dance the Night Away

Aventurine is not in the habit of allowing himself to want. Wanting is dangerous. Yearning is a vulnerability. Desires are weak points that can be exploited by others and used to take advantage and control. The responsible thing to do is to stamp them out, rid himself of them in such a way that the fantasies and the delusions are no longer appealing. That’s what he should do. That’s what he’s trying to do. But somewhere deep in his small, hollow little heart, there’s somehow just enough of a soft core left to hope. Hope is almost as dangerous as want. After Penacony, Aventurine takes on the biggest gamble of his life — his heart, soul, and desires laid out on the table. He only does it because he doesn't expect Ratio to match his wager. But not only does the good doctor match it, he raises the stakes so far beyond what Aventurine could have ever allowed himself to dream of winning.
